About
Put some variety in your Kenya coast holiday – leave the surf for some serious land-based wildlife exploration. Tsavo East National Park is big, rugged, and filled with large game like lions, leopards, and elephants on its red dusty plains.
Nearby Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary contrasts with its green rolling hills and compact space. But the wildlife viewing is just as active here as the larger park – you’ll be looking for the big cats, plus elephant, buffalo, giraffe, zebra, gazelle, impala, over 300 species of birds, and more.

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- susn_maroosn0 contributionsBest Safari everWe booked our 5 days safari with Africa Kenya Safaris and can totally recommend this company. On the first day we hat a little problem with the pickup but the tour operator acted very fast and professional, the communication was always very good. We met our driver Milton - a very kind, forthcoming, and nice man - and started our safari. Fist night, we spent in Tsavo East, at Satao Camp. We had our phantastic game drives and Milton had eyes like an eagle - he spotted everything, even if the animal was far away. He explained very much and gave us lots of interesting information. We saw all kind of animals. Some animals were so close, you could almost touch them and Milton always knew the best parking position to take the best pictures. Satao camp was great, very nice staff, good food and the location was stunning-directly next to the waterhole, no fences. Phantastic. Next we headed to Amboseli and stayed at Tulia Camp. The camp was also perfect - you can spot Kilimandscharo from your bed. Also we had very good food, everybody was really nice and we had a great time. Our game drives were phantastic-we spotted cheetah, lions, buffalos, etc. Milton had a very nice idea and drove us to an observation hill, where we had a picknick in the middle of Amboseli Park. The nature is absolutely beautiful. After 2 days at Amboseli, we went to Tsavo West and stayed at Kilaguni Serena Lodge. Our room had the best view to the water hole, which was very frequently visited by elephants, giraffes, and so on. Milton took us to Mzima Springs where we watched the hippos and the crocodiles. And then came my personal highlight: Milton recieved the tip, that there is a Leopard nearby and so he drove us very fast to this spot. There he was, a beautiful Leopard, directly next to the car - thanks to Milton! He is the best driver in the world!!! After the last night, we had again a game drive and then we started the drive towards Diani beach again. We always had the feeling, that we are in good hands, the drive was very safe and it was a pleasure to be on safari with Milton! Thanks to Africa Kenya Safaris for giving us the best safari experience ever, we enjoyed every secound. We would always book the safari again with this company!Written November 14, 2024
- elicanam0 contributionsBEST SAFARI ON THE PLANET**MASAI MARA Safari with Africa Kenya Safaris** My 4-day, 3-night safari with Africa Kenya Safaris in the Masai Mara was an outstanding experience. The expertise of our guide was a standout feature—his deep knowledge of the region's wildlife and ecosystems significantly enhanced our game drives, allowing us to see the Big Five and witness spectacular events like a cheetah hunt and the Great Migration. The Masai Mara itself was breathtaking, with its vast plains, diverse wildlife, and stunning landscapes. The beauty of the park, combined with the rich wildlife encounters, made every moment unforgettable. The accommodation arranged by Africa Kenya Safaris was excellent. We stayed in a luxurious tented camp that offered both comfort and incredible views of the Mara. The facilities were top-notch, and the service was warm and attentive, providing a perfect blend of luxury and nature. Overall, Africa Kenya Safaris delivered an exceptional and well-organized adventure, making this a truly unforgettable experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a top-tier safari experience in the Masai Mara.Written July 26, 2024

- milada_70 contributionsAmazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️We were two sisters on Safari to Masai Mara from Diani beach. The flight is a little over 2 hours and it went great. We were wellcomed by our drivers and went directly to safari. It was beyond belief and more. We loved every moment of it even the bumpy rides too. The we went and checked in at our Mara Serena lodge hotel which is so beautiful with elephants chilling right under. The room was very nice and comfortable even if it's not that big. We loved everything about our trip. Would defenitly go again with the same tour organizers. Thank you Martha and everyone else involved to make our Africa trip a dream. 🙂Written July 11, 2024
- Dream063164135630 contributionsFantastic, highly recommendWe saw a lot of animals. We got much closer than we expected and had elephants, zebras and more at our lodge. Our guide, Alex, was fantastic. He was so knowledgeable and friendly. The accommodation and food was beyond expectations.Written July 4, 2024
- Explore044823775890 contributionsGood experience but...Overall it was a good experience but considering everything, a bit overpriced. I have chosen this company cause I especially wanted to stay in Voyager camp in Tsavo West (and I was right, the place is amazing) and most companies didn't allow this option. However, I think I should have been informed that if I want to do Tsavo West and Amboseli parks in 3 days, I will have very limited time in Amboseli and actually spend most of the time travelling to the parks from and to Diani Beach. I regret I wasn't't suggested 4 days of safari instead. I admit a bit of lack of research from my side as well, I didn't know the journey back from Amboseli to Diani is like 9 hours! For this price though, I would expect the company to be more informative. I needed to rush out of the beautiful Amboseli park at 8 am, which I didn't expect. The driver rushed to come back which is understandable considering him traveling back to Amboseli the next day, so he was probably very tired and needed a rest. But why didn't the company organise it in another way? For example another driver being sent on another day? I would appreciate one or two hours more in Amboseli and this would mean I would be back to Diani at 8 pm instead of 6 pm which would be completely fine with me. If I knew that on the third day I would have just one hour in Amboseli, I wouldn't choose to organise it this way. It is very expensive, once in a lifetime experience and I have the feeling I didn't make the most of it for that reason.Written March 21, 2024
- Alexangel01230 contributionsReally good experience from booking till the endMasai mara was amazing. Our driver Albert was really cool, giving us vital information all the time. He was really good driver, safe and also letting us sleep/relax on the road and enjoy the scenery. Moreover the prior communications with Mary was really fast and informative. In general an amazing experience from booking till the end!Written March 4, 2024

- T530FNchrisb0 contributionsExperience of a lifetime led by a knowledgeable driver who took us to all the right placesUnbelievable experience with such a contrasting landscape between Tsavo East & West. Fantastic views and wide variety of wildlife. The Serena Lodge in Tsavo West was particularly outstanding with the most amazing view over the waterhole. Private safari choice made it even more special.Written February 16, 2024

- Curiosity8288590 contributionsGreat experience!!Had a fantastic safari experience. Our guide was Pascal and he was so knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic. The lodges we stayed at were also absolutely incredible and we saw all the wildlife we hoped to see and more. Couldn't recommend it more, everything went extremely smoothly and it far exceeded our expectations. Great value for money!Written September 7, 2023
- Journey225707016080 contributionsThe Incredible Big Five right on the first day!It’s hard to find words to describe our experience as it was unforgettable, insane and simply amazing. With the help of our guide Paul we managed to see the Big Five right on the first day (which is extremely rare) and many more like antelopes, impalas, wild pigs, oryxes, giraffes, hippos, crocodiles, zebras etc. We had the greatest time exploring the wild nature of Kenya and appreciating the animals in their natural habitat. Paul, our driver and guide, was very professional as he shared a surplus of interesting facts about Kenya and the animals; moreover, only because of him we were able to chase lions!! — and patient (as we wanted to stop EVERY time we saw something cool to take pictures and admire the view). Huge thanks to Paul who made an immense contribution to our experience. Overall, this 2-day safari was a highlight of our trip to Kenya, we will surely never forget it and will cherish the memories for the rest of our lives. Shout out to Africa Kenya Safaris - Diani for making this all happen.Written August 2, 2023
- 932ivonnel0 contributionsFantastic 4 days safari -Tsavo East/Amboseli/Tsavo WestHello, it was my first experience with a safari tour. It was indescribably beautiful. Our guide/driver was Salim. We were with him for the entire 4 days. Everything was so great. It was great fun with him and he did everything to let us see as many animals as possible. He picked us up in a jeep from Dianibeach. We've been to Tsavo East, Amboseli and Tsavo West. The lodges were each unique. In order to be able to process all these impressions better, next time I would book 2 nights per lodge. But all in all it was a fantastic experience and not the last time. Many thanks again to Salim. The tours were as described and even nicer. I can only recommend this safari!! Many many thanks! (Here are a few impressions/pictures.)Written June 26, 2023
